"2009/2010 ice season has begun .." Oh yeah?

He was funny alright but I always thought his brother Erik was funnier.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! Even funnier had you written it with something else!

We've just received a note from the website hosts saying that it was definitely a hardware failure and that all should be stable now.

Terrible stuff, Geoff. Chin up and stay strong for them.

A free Subway card??? Hell, had I known that I would have driven up from Boucherville for that! and the book?? WOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOO!

We're on the same page, Grt1. Had two Buds in the boat about 20 years ago...couldn't buy a pickerel. I rigged up a floater and was picking one up every 5-10 minutes....they thought it was a fluke. After 6-7 fish they both asked me for a floater. I still always keep a pack in my kit.

"The guy says, "Uh, about 50." The robot leans in real close and says, "So... how come you're not drinking Old Millwaukies?"

*puts that one away for future use*

Sorry me Brudder and Dave. I have to stay back at the homestead here...gotta sort my socks drawer. Also, a 14 hour drive is long for an hour visit...as much as I love you guys...... Get your butts out there though guys....Dave is a funny, interesting and knowledgeable dude.

Yep, I was thinking the same thing...lemon droppies for everyone! You be well, Joe.

Thank you for your visit this morning. Was great seeing you and Barbara again. Thank you so much for the part you dropped off for my less than perfect kitchen appliance....very much appreciated.

Y'now, I've never met the man. I'm sure that he's worked hard to get to be where he's at. It burns me to know that his son is on our board and reads (sometimes accidentally) negative comments about his Dad. Just sayin'....

Yeah, that's what she said at the Bell Canada picnic....

Could very well be, Billy Bob. We're just dithering on the edge of mediocrity here.

Maybe he knows something about your TV that you don't.

Where are you guys getting all these cream jobs??? Have a super season, Scott! (Like I should even think that you wouldn't)

What everyone else said. A word of caution about things appearing to be good quality because "that's what the lodges use". In 1957 every police force in North America and thousands of cab owners bought 1957 Plymouths because the '56 was a great car. It turns out that the 1957 plymouth was arguably one of the worst automobiles ever manufactured. Just sayin'....

Just Googled slingshot for you...would this help you? <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXLi0UP6ACQ?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param'>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXLi0UP6ACQ?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXLi0UP6ACQ?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>

Winds West 25km/h here getting drizzle. Everything is coated with ice...gunna have to put out some food for the little chirpin' friends so they don't bust their beaks looking for seeds and whatnot.

It's late I know but good morning Lew!

1988....that was the year I built the house I'm still living in today. My son was fresh out of architectural schooling. He designed it, I built it. It cost me a little more than $350K at the time...almost the same as it had cost for his schooling. Architectural schooling wouldn't have cost so much but I drove him to the airport, headed for Europe and noticed that he had packed his skis...that's when I realised that it was gunna be a long, costly haul.

I'll pop in there now for a little yak....maybe we'll all learn something...
